Brief Description:  Rudder riveting #1

Mitchel and I got a quick hour in on the airplane. Put a dab of RVT Ultrablue (non-corrosive) sealer inside the trailing edge of the rudder where the stiffners meet, per the plans. This helps prevent cracking of the skins in this area. Then we started riveting the skin on. We are only a 1/4 of the way through, but making good progress. Hopefully this piece will be finished tomorrow.
